CAFA (Central Asia)
EAFF (East Asia)
SAFF (South Asia)
WAFF (Western Asia) The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) is the governing body of association football, beach soccer, and futsal in most countries and territories in Asia. The AFC was formed in 1954. It has 47 members. The Asian Ladies Football Confederation (ALFC) was the section of AFC that managed women's association football in Asia. The group was independently founded in April 1968 in a meeting involving Taiwan, British Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore. In 1986, ALFC merged with AFC.

AFC Women's Club Championship AFC runs the AFC Asian Cup and the AFC Women's Asian Cup, which are held every 4 years. AFC organises the AFC Futsal Asian Cup, AFC Women's Futsal Asian Cup, AFC Beach Soccer Asian Cup, various age-level international association football, youth futsal tournaments and the Asian qualifying tournament for the FIFA World Cup and for football at the Summer Olympics.

The top-ranked AFC tournament for men's association football clubs is the AFC Champions League Elite. The competition is an amalgamation of the Asian Club Championship, the Asian Cup Winners' Cup and the Asian Super Cup and gathers the top teams from the highest-ranked nations in Asia (the number of teams depend on that country's ranking and can be upgraded or downgraded). The top-ranked AFC tournament for women's association football clubs is the AFC Women's Champions League which was launched in the 2024–25 season.

The second-tier men's tournament is the AFC Champions League Two, while the third-tier tournament is the AFC Challenge League, which were both revamped and rebranded in 2024.

AFC runs an annual Asian futsal club tournament, the AFC Futsal Club Championship for futsal club competition.
